Happy Burfday! John Amos

John Amos is probably most famous for playing James Evans, Sr. on the 1970s television series Good Times. His television work includes roles in The Mary Tyler Moore Show, the miniseries Roots, for which he received an Emmy nomination, and a recurring role in The West Wing. He also played the father of Will Smith’s character’s girlfriend, Lisa Wilkes, in The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.

I know everyone remembers when James died on Good Times, and you shed thug tears.
